Coach Talk

MB Tide
This sport is all about creating mismatches. We really took that to heart this week by doubling up Brad's Team at the wide receiver position (727 points to 318).
Brad's Team
It's entirely possible that Brad's Team would be a better GM in the NFL than in fantasy football. Seeing only eight total targets this past week, their three wide receivers apparently helped their teams' causes by running decoy routes and blocking downfield.
